As for a replacement, the same source, Sky Sports, are reporting that Chelsea are considering making a move for the Roma goalkeeper, Alisson.

The Brazilian, just 25-years-of-age, has seen his reputation enhanced with some thrilling displays, performances that have also seen Liverpool express an interest in the keeper, something the Guardian, recently reported on and here at Vital Chelsea we’d imagine their interest has grown after the howlers committed by Loris Karius in the Champions League Final, against Real Madrid.

As for a price for Alisson, the figure of £79 million has been quoted by our above source.

But, is Alisson any better than Courtois?
